Jo-car
WoTober - October 1
Age of Legends
The jo-car was a passenger vehicle or small cargo vehicle. It came in two forms: a ground version that had four wheels, or a floater version that used anti-grav tech.
[below this are two images from the wheel of time show, one of a four wheeled wagon and the other a blurry image of what might be a flying vehicle. ]
Inspiration
One possible le source of inspiration for the name is the Subaru Jo-car a concept car introduced in 1987.
